Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Limited Supply. One of our favorite deciduous trees for winter, as well as all year round interest! The form of this fastigiate tree, with its undulating ascending branches, is best displayed without its attractive purple red foliage. Slowly becoming a 40'+ specimen, it stays within a 3 to 4' width for years, although with age it can attain some girth. Use individually as a sentinel in the landscape or in groupings to form panels. 2-3' plants for spring shipping. We also have a few large specimens availalbe for nursery pickup.
